Guan Tong wondered who Liu Juan was on the phone with. She was speaking in a clandestine tone and quiet whispering. Guan Tong rushed to a tall tree and hid behind to avoid Liu Juan from seeing her.

“You incompetent slob! That ugly girl, Lin Fei, had got into Lu Han’s bed, yet you haven’t even had a whiff of his clothes!” Liu Juan angrily whispered. 

The woman on the other end of the line seemed to feel a sense of guilt. Lu Han had been in a comatose state for many years now, and the Old Madam was greatly concerned that she needed to find someone born on a cloudy day under many specific conditions. Hence, that woman must have felt that she couldn’t get in Lu Han’s sight under all the supervision from the Old Madam. 

Guan Tong could only roughly make out what she was hearing. Liu Juan wanted another woman to be Lu Han’s wife, but it was a pity that that woman probably failed in her attempt for all these years. Guan Tong, however, ended up here on her own and managed to navigate her way in the Lu family with the approval of the Old Madam and Lu Han, which made her anxious.

“I don’t care! I brought you here to lie in Lu Han’s bed. If you can’t see it through, you might as well just leave!” Liu Juan insisted. Guan Tong listened as she heard Liu Juan give an anonymous girl the ultimatum.

“You don’t have to worry about that ugly girl. I’ll find a way to get rid of her.” The girl replied to Liu Juan.

Guan Tong was speechless, she knew she wasn’t a great beauty, but nothing had happened between her and Lu Han. She felt like it was all his fault. Handsome men always lead to troubles. After Guan Tong heard Liu Juan and the girl’s conversation, she had lost all her excitement to stroll the garden. She felt like she should have gone back sooner to stay by Lu Han’s side. At least she would feel safer. 

As Lu Han walked out of the bathroom, he noticed that no one was in there. Lu Han assumed that Guan Tong got angry at his words and left the room. Just as Lu Han was busy thinking about Guan Tong and where she went, she suddenly walked in and patted her chest.

“What’s wrong? You look like you’ve just seen a wolf.” Lu Han asked.

“It was worse than seeing a wolf.” If Guan Tong had met a wolf, at least that was a chance for her to escape but what she encountered was much worse. Lu Han raised his eyebrows because he knew that Guan Tong was not an easily-startled woman. Guan Tong thought about what she heard and decided not to tell Lu Han about Liu Juan’s conversation in the garden. She did not trust Lu Han enough yet.

“You…” However, Lu Han did not give Guan Tong the chance to escape. 

“Is the medicine used to calm the nerves?” Guan Tong asked.

Lu Han’s expression turned cold. It seemed that this girl knew something. Although the medicine he used was to calm the nerves, the smell of the mixture was no different from that of pickled vegetables. Lu Han was sure that no one would be smart enough to smell the difference.

“What do you know?” Lu Han took a big step forward and rushed toward Guan Tong. He grabbed Guan Tong’s neck with a fierce expression.

“Cough! Cough! Let go of me!” She struggled. Guan Tong’s face was red from the pressure around her neck. However, Lu Han did not let go. Instead, he added more pressure around her throat. Guan Tong felt her windpipe being crushed. She was afraid that she would die today.

At this moment, Lu Han’s heart softened when he saw Guan Tong’s familiar naive eyes. He then relaxed his grip and let go. He knew that he shouldn’t lose himself at this moment. Lu Han wanted to eliminate the problem, root, and stem. However, he couldn’t bear to hurt Guan Tong when he saw the pair of eyes that reminded him of the mysterious woman.

“Are you going to strangle me to death!?” Guan Tong protested. She didn’t know that she almost got herself killed from just asking a question.

Lu Han could tell that the girl in front of him had no strength to fight against him at all. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her not to resist his grip.

“Although this is a sedative medicine, one of the ingredients is crucial.” Lu Han quietly waited for Guan Tong to respond.

Guan Tong coughed twice. The man was indeed a deadly and dangerous person, and his tight grip had left a mark on her neck.

“This medicine is known as the Scorpion Poison. It’s scarce but at the same time also extremely potent. You’ve been in a comatose state for so long that you probably can’t stand its effects. You would feel a burning sensation inside of you. This probably had something to do with your injuries.” 

Guan Tong remembered the last time she bathed Lu Han. She saw two visible wounds on his hip. They were deep enough to reach his internal organs that could be fatal. As Lu Han heard Guan Tong’s speculation, his eyes darkened. She was right.

“How do you know?” Lu Han would’ve killed this girl today if he couldn’t get an answer from her.

“I saw it when I bathed you last time. Plus, I have some knowledge about that medicine you were using.” Guan Tong looked at Lu Han and said.

Lu Han saw that the girl in front of him had innocent eyes. Besides, he was sure that Guan Tong wasn’t lying to him, but he was still wondering who she indeed was. Anyone would rarely know or hear of the Scorpion Poison. A young girl like her would have less chance of knowing about it.

“You’d better not tell anyone about what you know, or I’ll have to kill you. Dead men don’t talk.” Lu Han’s eyes flashed maliciously as he slowly approached Guan Tong.

“I…I can cure you.” Guan Tong was forced to step back by the approaching Lu Han. She didn’t want to die yet.

Lu Han didn’t believe Guan Tong’s words. If his injury was impossible for even the best doctors they could find, he doubted that this innocent girl would know how to heal him.

“You don’t believe me? Well, no one else could cure your wounds, so give me a chance.” Guan Tong insisted.

Lu Han was angered by Guan Tong’s words and sarcastically laughed at her for thinking of him as a guinea pig..
